“Ms. Rachel took wonderful care of my 2 kids on a last minute booking! I even had them picked up and dropped back home. We communicated during their stay and everything went great. I will definitely use Ms. Rachel again!”


“Doug has cared for our little doggie, Freddy, a couple of times now. Freddy has diet restrictions that make for extra work, so we are very happy with Doug's attention and care. Great dog sitter! :)”


“Brittney was the answer to all our problems! Our puppy, Rosie, needed last-minute surgery to remove a tumor on her leg right before we left on a trip we couldn't cancel. Since we couldn't board her in a place that couldn't keep careful watch over her at all times, we turned to Rover and found Brittney. Brittney made sure Rosie did not bother her surgery bandage and kept her around dogs with calmer temperaments (Rosie LOVES other dogs and needed to be around dogs that wouldn't get her too riled up and potentially bother her surgery wound). She also took care to ensure Rosie was in her post-surgery cone so she couldn't get to her wound overnight or when they needed to leave the house. She was a pro at giving Rosie her antibiotics and also went above and beyond by taking her to the vet when her bandage slipped off so she could get patched up with a new one. We couldn't have asked for better care for our Rosie while we were away. It wasn't a situation we wanted to be in, but Brittney made it all manageable and we were able to enjoy our trip with no worries over Rosie being taken care of. I should also mention that Rosie is a rescue and is scared of most people she meets. But she seemed to take to Brittney and her husband very quickly after we left, and if that's not a true endorsement, I don't know what is!”


“This was our first time using Jordyn since moving to the area and she was amazing! She communicated with us and sent pictures daily and put us at ease with leaving our dog. We will absolutely be using Jordyn again in the future. I highly recommend her!”


“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”



“We couldn't be more happy with our first dogvacay experience. Upon arrival, we immediately knew Barrie has a real love for dogs. Barrie went above and beyond in taking great care of our 5 month old puppy. She sent us pictures along the way and gave us quick updates so we knew she was being well cared for. Barrie had everything needed, so the only thing we had to bring was her food. Our puppy stayed at the Ritz Carlton!! She loved it and I hope she will get to return for another vacay soon!”



“Paul was great! He accommodated our last minute needs and updated us frequently with pictures. We can tell our dog had a good time under his care. Will definitely use his services next time we are in town.”


“Karla did a great job with our two boys while we were out for a 5 night trip. She was very communicative and steady with photos and videos. Would definitely book with Karla again in the future!”


“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”


“Lauren was so attentive and passionate about my furbabies needs. She frequently sent updates and pictures. They were always smiling and being pampered. They are definitely going to visit Lauren and Cooper again.”


“Krystal is an absolute dream to work with! She provided consistent updates and pics. This was really helpful since my puppy is anxious and I tend to worry about her. Krystal took amazing care of Ellie and I will absolutely book with her again. If you're looking for a wonderful caregiver for your fur baby, Krystal is who you're looking for!”


“Our beagle, Bailey, stayed with Westyn again this weekend for the second time this summer. She is all smiles while she is with his family and very happy when she comes home :)”


“I highly recommend Jimbo as a pet sitter. He went above and beyond to take care of my puppy Ginger for 7 days, even giving her a cute outfit and spoiling her with love and attention. He also provided daily updates and videos of Ginger playing in the dog park, which put my mind at ease while I was away. I was completely satisfied with his service and will definitely be recommending him to others in need of a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”


“Anna did a meet and greet with me at a park beforehand since I’m a nervous dog mom with new sitters. My pup had such a good time playing with new doggy friends she was exhausted when we got home!”


“Bonnie M. was very patient & kind with my furries. I appreciate her agreeing to care for them. Despite my big, rambunctious puppy, she had no negative commentary and they all seem to have been treated well.”


“I had to take a last minute trip out of state and used Rover for the first time. I chose Libby and she was absolutely wonderful. She was easy to book last minute and she took good care of my fur babies. I have a 9 year old Samoyed/Husky mix and a 6 month old Samoyed. She was very responsive and sent the best pictures and videos of my babies. I highly recommend her and I will definitely book with Libby again in the future.”


“Ariana is absolutely wonderful! She’s so caring, quick to respond, and always sweet to us. Even when we needed to drop off our pets at 5:30 in the morning, she was super accommodating and made it work right away. Plus, she keeps us updated on our furry friends so we don’t have to miss them too much. We can’t wait to come back and see Ariana again!”
